From this year, our guild ’de Almeerse Wolunie’ rents a room in an artists ’factory’. Initially only for half a year, the coldest months and the period that we cannot work in the sheeps ’stable’ because of lambing time, which is March and April.and luckily, the rent is extended to last a year. The weaving looms, spinning wheels, worktable and the shop inventory are moved here. Look how spacious it is now!

Last year I started setting up weaving n the storage area of the sheep stable, but it was cold, damp, crammed, dark, so it was all but inviting to work there.
But that is all in the past! Yesterday I continued setting up the weaving, and hurray, the real
weaving can start! Actually, setting up the weaving loom (I don’t know
the terminology of all the steps) takes an enormous amount of time,
which is not at all known to those who have never seen or done it. So it is really justified with a little celebration!
